Default Side Mirrors

My Budget-ass 92' Civic DX 4dr didn't come with a passenger side mirror, so i got some generic ones with the turn signals for cheap.

2 Questions.

they are Manual mirros (Manual by just pressing the glass with your hand) and not manual like the driver side one which has the movement joystick thing. I don't care how the mirrors get moved, but after i replace the driver side mirror the Plate that the joystick comes out of is going to have a hole in it, anyone know what I'm talking about? and where i can buy a black plastic triangle plate for the inside back of the mirror (like the one thats on the passenger side Without the hole in it for the mirror-joystick?

and 2 any tips on how to wire the Turn signals to the mirrors?
I could just run really long wire from the signals in the bumper but that seems very inefficient and annoying.

these are the mirrors i got. they have 3 wires and the tiny peice of paper that came with them says

"White connect to signal Lamp [+]....Blue connect to Packing lamp (Bumper lamp) [+]........Black connect to Ground [-]"

now I know this is poorly translated japanese, but what is a packing lamp? any tips on where to hookup just the signal wires would be much appreciated.
